I have heard many saying andrea is used for masala..what can i say about that?
Andrea is complex important character in the movie..She is the latest lover for kamal and for her its the first love,thats why she felt a lot knowing going to miss the lover without spending lot of time like kamal with other relationship..Also she has other guilty feeling along with KH while bhaskar reads the letter and oorvashi in hospital scene..Kamal wants andrea to be with her whenever the past relationships/feelings are exposed..the reaction of andrea is shown clearly when MSB reads the letter,oorvashi polambals in hospital..the reaction of andrea is ultimate when oorvashi talks about beauty "enga enna vittu poiruvaarnu oru byam"

Followed by car scene which is another great scene in UV movie which we discussed in whatsapp today with dr,anban..
Andrea - "varu pesa kulla apdiyae nerupalli kotna maadhri irunththu"
Dr MD Ds - "hold your horses,we have chauffer(driver)"
Kamal -"Thirunavukarsu viswasamaana aalu,yaarkitaiyum solla maataar,blah and blah"
Andrea -"then naan enna santhoshamma,sangojamma"
Kamal - "Enna venum unakku"
Andrea -"varu en patient,avungalum nallarukanum,naanum avamanam edhuvuma illaama vaazhanum ,so intha carla irukura 3 aamabalaingalum enakku sathyam pannanum"
then everyone will promise and kamal end with "chitraguptan kaetpaanae,naan actor samaalichikaran" followed by hug & kaadhalaan kadvavul mun song..

this is from one of article
"ஆண்ட்ரியாவுக்கும் தனக்கும் இருக்கும் கள்ளக்காதல் யாருக்கும் தெரியக் கூடாதென்று ட்ரைவரிடமும் நண்பரிடமும் சத்தியம் வாங்கி, அதைக் காட்சியாக்கி, ஊருக்கெல்லாம் சொல்கிற தைரியம் கமலைத் தவிர யாருக்கு வரும்?"

What a dignified way of portraying the truth behind kalla kaadhal..How can they say andrea is used for masala..

[Anban]

NOV sir, pl permit Dr and anban. we need them at this hour to discuss and analyse UV.

i am here .. Doc is banned .. i dont think any one can blame NOV for banning doc .. but the mods of this hub are indulging in double standards ..

[venkkiram]

Hub lost it's purity long time back. Same thing happened to IR fans but many of them settled well with a dedicated space for one and only IR. I think we also need to follow the same path. Create a space dedicated for Kamal and bring every Kamalians across the globe to contribute. There are many aspects of Kamal in general needs appreciation without any second thought. But here who is the audience we are talking to? Think about it and take a right decision.

Kumarsr,

A movie is actually 'whatever the viewer wants it to be'. Few people try to be 'perfectionist' stating that what they state is what should be slated. Irrespective to what the makers may have thought (I had been slapped many number of times with that line), I approach a movie as it appraoches me, and I don't care about the insider's informations. Such arguments come into place only when the fans & audience realise "Genre Filmmaking", until then, there is no wrong in expressing whatever you think about the movie. We have a habit of mixing anything & everything, and that's entirely a different topic.

All agreed, it is after-all a visual medium. But any view can be subject to scrutiny, counter points and challenges, no? It is also interesting to speculate what the likely intention of the creator could have been to see how one's view compares and contrasts. But perhaps a larger point is, when something is subject to so many interpretations, I feel it generally does not attract the general audience, especially in TN. Not that it is necessarily bad or wrong, but commercial viability is important. In the case of UV, that does not seem to be the case. Anecdotally, on the web we don't see many complaining they do not understand the movie and it seems to be doing well, slowly picking up some steam. Also, as a side point, in some cases, it becomes difficult to understand, by just reading a review, whether the movie as package worked for the person or not? Even when the supposed review is quite long as in this case:

But, deep down, one cannot escape the pleasurable fact that all this deep analysis is only reserved for KH and a very selective few. Is that good or bad?

[NOV]

Guys, Dr. Chandra PMed in the middle of my night asking me to ban him.
Before I could do anything, the damage was done.
I think he needed a break and I too agree with him.
Whether he wants to come back here or not is entirely up to him.

Can we please stop talking about the past please?

If the above figures are accurate, that would make UAE the biggest overseas market for UV.

UK did not match expectations. Could be due to the fact that Qube and not Aingaran that did the distribution.

[Chikatiloan]

Doctor invited all true kamal fans to whatsapp group provided you are ready to bear with severe criticism of kamal himself in the group..
Just PM to Anban if you want to join..

[NOV]

If the above figures are accurate, that would make UAE the biggest overseas market for UV.

Malaysia will always be the biggest market outside India. The figure you see above is UAE & others.
